Hate to sound ignorant but I signed up for photobucket and I'm still confused on how to post my pic.

Pull up the pic on the photobucket that you like and then look to the right of the screen. You will see a button that says "IMG". Click the link next to the "IMG" button, it will auto copy and then paste in the thread.

Thanks for the help!

Where do you live in Maryland? I lived in Baltimore for year with my Grandmother when my dad went to 'nam. In fact, that was the year that the BALTIMORE Colts won the Super Bowl. We moved to Key West right after that. I'm still a huge O's fan.

And this is from 2 weeks ago, got married at Hawks Cay, Duck Key Fl...

And of course a nice trip to the Eastern Caribean, Cane Garden Bay, Tortola BVI

Lost about 120 between Fall 2011 and now

Thanks IamPZ, yeah I hit it hard last spring with a crash diet, then followed through with a low cal low carb food plan. Been good, even with the wedding/honeymoon I stayed within my avg weight... Somehow lol..

Not this trip, but that is how I was first introduced. We were just there for the wedding this time, and they did a fantastic job all around. Had the ceremony at the twin palms behind the sunset village.

We had one small billing mishap, and a manager with an attitude that ended with my wife and mother rather upset, and us with 2 free nights anytime we want in the next year. I would not let that incident detour me from going again or highly recommending the place, all the people we dealt with, wedding planners, staff and even sub contractors were all top notch service. Guess the manager was having a bad day and ran into the wrong 2 Itallian/Irish women at the wrong time.. LOL

Had a great trip (3 days in Hawks Cay, and a 8 Day Eastern cruise), but was ready to get back to the routine today..

Props 10acjed. I was at 318 lbs back in 2011, and I am now down to 245 lbs. My goal is 200 lbs. Not been as discipline in my eating habits, but have gotten a lot better. Playing Tennis once a week and my Bowflex for strength training 3-4 times a week. I have the Bowflex dumbells as well. Can't quite do as much as I would like to as I have bone on bone in my left knee and the right one is getting to that point. I do squats, but they are just body squats.

been a dolphin fan since 1970,all the highs and the lows.Hope we are on the upswing again.

Very nice catch. Salmon, correct?

Get me in the kitchen with that fish and I'll cook you guys up a good meal.

I tried HCG when I first started, was very tough to do. 600 cal a day, was ok except when I had to do physical work, then I felt it. Luckily I work with friends, so they were supportive and helped out. After that 6 weeks I lost about 40 lb, and I cut down to about 1200 - 1500 cal a day diet and have stuck to it (most of the time). I eat as soon as I get up even if not hungry to get the body working, usually a banana or all natural breakfast bar. I try to eat periodically through the day, around 8 - 9, light lunch salad, or get grilled chiken/fish with veggies if I go out. Dinner is typically meat/fish/chicken, either grilled or broiled, then steamed veggies. I have accepted hunger as a substitue for the way I felt both physically and mentally from the excess weight. I still want to eat, but I also like seeing my toes and winkie lmao...

I highly recommend researching the foods you eat, we are duped with the "Natural" and "Organic" labeling, a lot of those products are not 100% natural, yet out gov feels its ok to label that way.

I have been trying to get back into a workout routine, just lazy.

WOW.....600 calories a day. Right now I am doing 1000-1400 calories a day. As I have said, not nearly as discipline as I should be, but I have REALLY cut down on the fried foods. About every 3-4 weeks I will go and get me some fried talapia or catfish with shrimp. The biggest area is as for all men, the DAMN gut. I have gone from a 46 to a 40 though, so I now I am making progress.
